Chipped Colt Grip - Repaired !
 

Some years ago, I bought a used Colt Gov't Model Series 70 38 Super automatic. Great pistol, flat shooting, mild recoil, holds one more than 45 magazine. :)

But the left grip was chipped. :( When these came out, they had a wood grip with a silver medallion, rather than the customary gold medallion. Since then, Colt has used the silver wood grips on several other models, but these were original, so I wanted to keep them.

Jim Solomon did a great job of checkering my Gonzo Carbine buttstock and two forearms, so I asked Jim to take a shot at the 38 Super grip. :thumbup:

It came out great! The 'patch' is only noticeable in the pictures (bottom of grip). I lightened the pics to make the peaks & valleys stand out, but the grip is dark enough that the seams blend right in. Jim checkered the 'patch' to match the Colt lines. :cheers:

Great job, quick service, reasonable pricing, securely packed for shipping!

A big 'Thank You!' to Jim for this repair! :D

Great job! Masterful work.
